doc/function/match.txt

+Function: match
+
+--Usage--
+> match(some_string, match: regular expression)
+> match_rule(regular expression)()
+
+Does a string match the given [[type:regex|regular expression]]?

+| @match@	[[type:regex]]		Regular expression to match.
+
+--Examples--
+> match("aaaa", match:"a*")   == true
+> match("a",    match:"b*")   == true
+> match("abc",  match:"b+")   == true
+> match("abc",  match:"$b+^") == false
+>
+> f := match_rule(match: "a+|b+")

+		  				When it is a string, returns the number of characters.
+| @filter@	[[type:function]] (optional)	Act as if the list was [[fun:filter_list|filtered]] by this criterion.
+		  				Only when @in@ is a set.
+
+--Examples--
